Founded in 1982, Intercooperation is today a leading Swiss non-profit organization engaged in development and international cooperation. Combining a professional approach with social commitments, we support partner organisations in more than twenty countries.
In Bangladesh, we started work in 2000 at the request of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation to manage its Sustainable Land Use Programme. The portfolio has grown in the meantime to include local governance as well as livelihoods, value chain and market development,
in addition to the initial natural resource management mandate.
We are a knowledge based organisation, emphasizing on capitalising on experience gained through our work and on sharing the generated knowledge with other development actors.
